Bret Hart's Account Of Idaho.

This Indian name, like all others, has
its accent on the second syllable. 1t is
pronounced Idah ho! Literally, it
means, "Where the light is.' A larger
and more complete translation would be,
"Where the light FIRST rests on the noun
tain at SUNRISE" IF you care to look
on the map you will iind the name of my
town there. But it is on the map only !;
for soon after / had established my ex-
press Office and the boys had pitched
their tents aud cabins aroand me-this
was when the Idaho mines we're first
discovered-therc came man, one DR..
Ferbur, along, who had daughter.
Her name was Florance. And as be
could not get lot for his drug store on
terms to suit he went halt mile further
on with his daughter and there sat down.
My town disappeared from history in
less than half year. The miuer.
gathered around the old man and his
daughter. They named their town
Florence. and It became tho capitol oi
Idaho.

report, stated the case Of the Indians
with clearness and precision. Two hun.
dred and sixty thousand Indians, hs said,
hold 135,0O0,000 acres Of land, and
have besides this invested funds and
lands in the market unsold amounting to
s18O00,00 aflnuities which he could
not accurately state the amount Of.
besides their personal property in sheep,
horses, cattle, &c. He valued their
lands and invested funds at $l52 ,OOO, 900
and annuities and personal property
would probably make the total Of the
estate Of these 100000 people at least
$l75,0O0,OO0. 1t amounts, in fact, to 4
good deal more, because Secretary Lamar
estimated their lands at only a dollar au
acre.
He was obliged to add that, to support
these wealthy paupers the people have
been required to pay out 10 taxes from
100000 to $7,00O,OoO i yoar fot

tender, A. H. Martin, in Salt Lake,
early last Sunday morning, is exciting
considerable attention in that city.
The cause Of the murder is q mys-
terry.
Near the little town of Rising Star,
in Eastman county, Texas, a secret So
eiety has been organized to suppress
idleness and make everybody work.
When an able-bodied man Is found to
be habitually idle, ne is warned by a
committee to go TO work or leave the
community.
A lively but brief scrlmmage oc-
Cured early this morning, in front of
the Merchants Hotel, between two
lessees of the Montezuma mine. The
younger man alleged tina, the elder
had not paid to the owner the money
set aside as royalty, whereupon the
latter struck him. In a second after
ward they we're on the ground, and
the younger man would have soundly
thumped his partner but for outside
interference. Damages, a few bruises,
n black eye, and the loss of little
claret.

A New Game of Pool.

The latest game introduced into
the city is Rudolph pool" 1t is al
ready very popular with the young
bloods who delight to gamble. A
board about two feet square, with holes
in which are numbers from from one
to rs, is placed on an ordinary bill
lard table. The contestants in the
game all pay ten cents for u shot, aud
each one is allowed to hit the ball
against the cushion and it bounds
back into the board upon the table
and falls into one of the holes. The
competitor getting into the hole with
the highest number secures the mon-
ey, less rs per cent, which the runner
of the game holds out as his commits.
ion. Sometimes there are as many as
80 in one round, and as the proprie-
tor gets two cents from every shot,
and as the shots follow one another
in quick succession, it will be seen
that it is a great institution for the
banker.-Tuscarora Times Review.

ture.
Frank Armstrong, the murderer,
and Louis Weiman, the train wrecker,
who escaped from the county Jail
some time during Tuesday night,
are still at large, and no definite
trace has been heard of them, though
two or three men are now satisfied
that an individual whom they saw on
Main str ct aoout 2 o'clock Wednes-
day morning must have. been Arm
strong. They are generally supposed
to have taken horses from one of tn.
several herds near town. and to have
put a good many miles between the m
and HALEY before their escape was
discovered yesterday morning.
Sheriff Kinney has posted no re-
ward yet, and, though he has several
men out and on the alert tor the fupi.
tives, there appears to be but little
probability of capturing them.
Considerable criticism Of the Sheriff
and his deputies, for permitting a con-
victed murderer to go about the Jail
without shackles or handouts, is
heard about town, especially as he
had been understood to regard the
Jail as not secure. Also, there are
many unfavorable remarks because no
reward has been offered for the cap
ture of the criminals.

Lyons had returned from Camas Prai-

that he now believed he knew the

A SchoelhOuse Used as a Gin Mill,

To THE EDrroR OF TEE TINES -
The Trustees of this district have
rented the schoclhouse for whisky
saloon; and have done this in spite
OF the energetic protests of the pat
rons Of the public school. Now, sir,
it seems to me that the law cannot
contemplate that such a thing shall
be done. Why, even the postal de-
partment will not allow a postofice to
be kept in place where liquors are
sold If, therefore, it is contrary to
law and good morals for a postoffice
to be kept in a gin-mill, i: must be
still more Objectionable to have the
schoolhouse used for such a purpose.
l am no goody-goody," Mr.. Ed
ltor, and do not expect everybody to
go to church regularly and be always
saying their prayers; but l believe
that the rising generation should be
given square deal, and allowed to
get their learning ssstrait.''
Truly yours,
EAST FORK.

The attention of County Superin-
tendent Butler and District Attorney
Roberts is called to the above, in the
hope that the cause Of complaint
will be removed. If it should not be
within two weeks, the TIMES will

The Bridges.

Yesterday was not so warm as the
two preceding days, and as last night
was cool, the river fell about a foot.
Therefore the bridges which stood
the freshet may be considered out OF
danger. The lull will give workmen
a chance to make the remaining ones
secure, Commissioner Warren says, SO
that even an additional sharp rise will
hardly affect those which are left.
